Hi, will this fit my 2006 4Runner? If not, do you have the one that will I think the TPH-021?

To install a Tow Pro Elite Brake Controller like part # RED44FR in your 2006 Toyota 4Runner the correct custom install wiring kit is the part # 3040-P with the adapter # 331-TPH-017 which plugs into the port under the dash of your vehicle and the other end will plug directly into your controller.

Why wouldn’t the TPH-021 work? I used it but my brake controller is not sensing the trailer.. stays in sleep mode. Is that the reason? I need to switch to the Tekonsha harness? 2006 4Runner v8 4x4

@IlyaB The part # RED49FR which is our part number for the TPH-021 would work. At one point this harness wasn't available which is why I didn't mention it in the above answer which is a few years old.

@JamesonC I have the TPH-021 and it doesn’t sense a trailer. That’s why I was curious if I need to use the other harness set up instead..

@IlyaB Have you checked the pins of your 7-way for dirt or corrosion? most of the time this problem is fixed by taking sandpaper to the pins of the 7-way.
